Made around the 1980s by Italian fashion powerhouse Fendi, this statement-making necklace is inspired by acorns. They are a natural companion and food source of the brand's original mascot – the squirrel (first introduced in their original logo from 1925). The acorn also has a long history in jewelry design, symbolizing strength and endurance, encapsulating the promise of the mighty oak contained within a small, but poweful nut. Blending artistry with meaningful symbolism, the links alternate between a faux pearl cabochon or an acorn, set within a domed frame boasting a smooth finish. Each link is connected with an acorn-shaped finials, resulting in a beautifully articulated piece that sits at the base of the collar. Substantial and weighty, it is an eye-catching, one-off runway collar that is a delight to wear and to collect!

As the creative director of Fendi from 1965 until his passing in 2019, Karl Lagerfeld oversaw and created comprehensive runway collections for the brand. This oversized collar is likely designed by him!
